@AeroLatinNews We are seeing actions that we have not seen for many years: market opening, elimination of monopolies, greater transparency and collaboration between key players,” said Peter Cerdá, vp of @IATA for the Americas, on the Argentine airline market.

@flySEA We’re saying ciao to something exciting! @AlaskaAir is launching nonstop service from SEA to Rome in 2026! This marks their third widebody international route from SEA, following Tokyo (now flying) and Seoul (coming this September).

@RollsRoyce Our Orpheus engine demonstrator is enabling us to rapidly test & advance many new capabilities.  Discover how in a bold recycling project – Tornado 2 Tempest – a new engine component was successfully tested, manufactured from used Tornado engine blades.

@simonasbartkus Last year, @airBaltic carried 12,000 passengers non-stop between Vilnius and Dubai. The total market size exceeded 28,000, with the most popular connecting points being Istanbul, Warsaw, and Riga.  I expect to see ~45% of passengers travelling on @flydubai connecting beyond.
